Good! Less meth on the streets. Let's get the rest of this trash that was selling it, too.

$600 a pound, is that all? How much does this stuff cost?

[CASE_CORE]

They forgot to mention that many of these criminals were also illegal immigrants. So much for the "they come here to work" attitude I hear so much. These people are criminals and need to be stopped. Are people finally going to step out of their fantasy world and see we have a real problem with these illegals in this valley.

Jesse Padilla, Jose Lopez, Juan Navarro, Jesus Hernandez-Martinez?

These guys ought to be easy to find.

100 pounds AND $60,000 in cash. Not worth.

There is no less than 500 people just in this county with the same names.

[PISSED OFF]

This is what happens when there are no more construction jobs left because of the housing market crash. These guys don't want to pick fruit anymore and need to somehow pay for their brand new silverado's or suburbans. Grapes and strawberries are not going to cut it any more.

[CASE_CORE]

Its time for them to go home and not come back here.

And probably all have the same social security number.

The street value of 100 pounds of meth is about $2,000,000. Yes that's 2 million.

[adios]

The rest fled to Mexico...via con dios..

A much better way of communicating. Thank you. And you made some valid points as well. No, not all immigrants, legal or illegal are bad people, per se...however when one takes a look at crime statistics it is indeed the "minorities" that lead the race. There are horrid people of every race/ color/creed. That's just the plain truth.

It has nothing to do with race!!! Its has everything to do with Mexican illegal immigrants. And no mexican is not a race for all you ignorant mexicans out there that keep saying its racist to say mexican.

You're right CC!

A Mexican is a person whose nationality-country of origin, is Mexico. It's not a true "race" identity. The United States refused to even recognize our people as "persons" within the meaning of the law until 1879 (Standing Bear v. Cook-a federal habeas corpus case).

That doesn't mean there isn't some RACIST MF'S in this forum though!

Ma'am, your hostile tone is not very attractive on you. I suggest you make an adjustment if you plan on keeping even just one friend because your negative attitude is bringing me down. Sweetie you're bringing me down.

Finally, an accurate comment on the subject of the Mexican identity and some of the forum posters. Thanks, Tia Nina.

Did Deputy Singh also forget to write a retraction for using the wrong picture in the newspaper? We drove down to Modesto as soon as we saw our son's picture in the paper. The police officer there informed me that the wrong picture had been used. Took our information down and a deputy would be contacting us regarding the picture, but we are still waiting for a retraction. I guess if you have a hispanic last name, everyone naturally assumes that you are an illegal and that you commit crimes because you are tired of working in the fields. My son is a student at the Community College and does not engage in criminal activities. Hopefully, Deputy Singh will respond or call the number we left at the Modesto Police Department. Thank you for putting my family in danger. Many meth users in our town, which is not Modesto, will come looking for the meth that we supposedly fabricate.
